• The next person who asked to be memorized is claytoniantomb, one of my awesome friends from out in Laramie, Wyoming. He has a very funny webcomic at surrealu.keenspace.com that was in the school paper for a while until one of the editor people decided that keeping the corncob in his butt was an outstanding thing. Anywho, he’s very creative, tall, handsome, and very single. (There’s your free advertising bud.)

  
  

  My most distinct memory of me and claytoniantomb is one winter night we were headed out to Wal-Mart. I can’t remember why, but we were. It was getting late, so the parking lot was near empty. His car had recently been involved in an accident, so one headlight was ok and the other was smashed in such a way that it shone upwards.

  
  

  He began spinning donuts and executing other maneuvers on the slick parking lot and as we came out of a particularly nice spin we found ourselves facing a large semi that had just pulled into the lot. As we sat there in the car, the broken headlight was shining directly into the driver’s window, and he smiled and waved at us. I’m sure it was the first time he had been spotlighted from such a small vehicle, and I thought the moment was particularly hilarious.

  
  

  There are other memories, most of which involve three foot ninjas, tragic romance, and roleplaying. I will say though that out of all of my friends, he by far has the most sophisticated sense of humor, something I greatly appreciated in contrast to the constant quotes from the movie “Supertroopers.” Thanks for the memories claytoniantomb. Hopefully I’ll see you in April.

  
  

  OK, who wants to be memorized next? Any volunteers?
